Some interviewer asks Kai about his first impression of Cinder and he goes: "hER SMILE WAS SO BRIGHT-"

Cinder: 👁👄👁 i didn't even smile-

Cinder just sTANDS there, smiling like: 😬 but in reality she's sobbing cuz shes an awkward baby

Thorne: okay, I'll tell you, but you have to promise me you won't get mad

Scarlet: what. Did. You. Do?

Thorne: well, I was minding my own business–

It’s just like

Jacin - hot asshole who will probably be important next book but this book has just existed. He hasn’t even made friends. Literally no one here likes him.

Thorne - wannabe Byronic hero but he hasn’t actually done anything selfish or bad boy. He’s just unfailingly patient and acts like some sort of team mom.

Wolf - the most Tortured Boy (tm) you can be, wavering between mindless violence and catatonic meltdown. Edward Cullen wishes he was this guy.

This one goes out to my three living Lunar Chronicles fans

closeups + original under the cut

Imagine if Kai was just a little more unhinged. He doesn't want Cinder to get captured and killed, so at a press conference he practically pulls the Peeta Mellark 'If it weren't for the baby' line. A journalist asks, "what of the rumour that the fugitive is carrying your child?"

And Kai, with a solemn expression, says cryptically, "these are hard times for all, for a number of reasons. Even for myself."

The world explodes. The EC military are freaking out because they can't risk harming the future heir, so the worldwide hunt for Linh Cinder is thrown in for a loop. Alas, Kai doesn't know that Cinder is Selene, so by implying that she is pregnant, Levana is even more determined to kill the two heirs to the Lunar throne and hunts Cinder even more viciously.

Meanwhile Cinder is furious and mortified. Thorne teases her endlessly about it ("I am NOT pregnant! We haven't even hugged!" "You were smooching him at the ball!" "That's different!!"). When Jacin says the line, "one more fling with your toy before he becomes Levana's property", she punches him twice.

Then when they kidnap Kai, she rips into him. "You made me out to be a teen mother! Do you know embarrassing that is?!" He rebuts, "I was trying to help you!"

One successful revolution later, the public are confused why there's no mention of this 'baby'. So in an interview, Kai is asked, "so, is Queen Selene pregnant with your child or not?"

Kai bursts out laughing. "Pregnant? Wherever did you get that idea?"

"...you confirmed it in a press conference."

"I never said she was pregnant."
